Full Circle Learning Academy

As the parent that wrote the insert below i must reply to the comments that i have been hearing that were made about myself and my child due to my input on this page. Yes, Ms.Lopez i do appreciate everything you did for my child you took her from a 2 to a 10 and i have always THANKED you for that but, as i told you if it was your child that was being treated like they were less than a person how would you feel? BAD, remember what goes around comes around we should always watch the statements that we make and how we address issues.And for the kids in your class that bullied my child THOSE WATTS and EAST SIDERS, life has a funny way of giving you back what you have dished OUT at there NEW schools they will get exactly what they gave my child right BACK at them. And for Mr.Aazami you never fooled me with your smiles or fake demeanor you will get yours too. My child is so happy now @ the new school made friends within 10 minutes and all those that came in contact with my child could tell this child was to timid to bully or calculate a story to hurt anyone SHAME ON YOU FULL CIRCLE. I Wish this school could have stayed open and have became the model of what a HORRIBLE school looks like.

This would be an excellent school if they screened and were selective with the children they accept. The staff does try to resolve issues but it is done on a limited bases, I have to tip my hat to the school coordinator he tries but it is 1 problem after another and the principle is a JOKE. I had many stressful days while my children attended this school due to the undisciplined children there but, that is not the schools fault it is the GHETTO parents. I liked and did support my daughters teacher 2nd/3rd grade until she rubbed me the wrong way with her favoritism towards her own kind. As a teacher you should never pass judgment until you know facts and she is not good at facts or maybe just ignoring them, the school is closing and my child will be leaving before school finishes due to 2nd grade teacher and evil, bullying and just plain mean kids. I wish all the good teachers especially 1st grade , 5th grade , the 1 office staff member and the yard staff i wish you the best you were great as for the rest may thunder fire on you for what you put my kids through. FYI i know nothing about the junior high or there teachers only the ELEMENTARY. And why can't we name names?

I would not recommend this school to any one. The discipline is horrible. The so called principle is useless. I am very disappointed and my children will not be returning next year.

This school is a disaster. You need to bring the old staff back. The kindergarten teacher has no control over her class. This could be a great school if the founder would hire dedicated staff like the previous ones . I would never recommend this school to any parent. If it was up to me I would home school my 3 kids. This school sucks BIG TIME!!

Those responsible for the issues described in the last posting are no longer at the school. The new teachers and support workers are hard-working and more loving than ever. The vision of the school remains as it has been since the school's inception - to provide a caring environment in which students connect their skills to serving their community and feel motivated to learn. The founder visits each of two schools and also helps students and teachers network with partner FCL schools abroad in 15 countries.

This school has recently become a complete disaster. Changes were made this year that did not work well for the overall structure of the school or students well being. I was very disappointed to see the good teachers that were at the school last year not return. The new administration is despicable! Parents are "not allowed" to go any further than the main lobby when they enter the school. The principal shows minimal lack of interest in the parents' concerns and seems to careless about student achievement. The founder is no where to be found and something needs to be done about it. I do not recommend this school to ANY parents looking for a place to educate their children.

I recently took my child out of this school. There were some drastic changes made and definitely not for the best. The entire staff was terminated which wasn't a good sign. The only remaining teacher is Mr. Mayfield and he's the best thing that Full Circle has to offer right now. The founder of the school is moving in a new direction, which in my opinion doesn't work with the inner city students. There now lies that lack of love and sincerity that you once felt within this small school. I wish any parents the best of look in allowing there child to attend this school but I definitely would not refer anyone @ this point.

This is my childrens first year at this school and they both love it. I love the small class sizes and the care and support the teachers show my children.

My cousin referred me to this school she just received her sons test scores and they where amazing!! When I first step into this school I felt love in the air from the office staff. I say this because the office staff greets you with a smile and talks to you as if they where the parents who are looking for the right school for their own children. They have lots of information and fun activities at this school. I also got to meet the Principal of the school which was very unusual because I have never met a principal that actually came out of her office just to greet my 2 boys. She was very interested about my children s education; I am still hoping my children get accepted at this school. I hope they call me soon with the great news. I am very confident that this school wil
